Tehran Faces Water Shortage


(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Tehran's main source of drinking water is at risk of running dry within two weeks, state media warned on Sunday, owing to a historic drought. The Amir Kabir dam, one of five which provide drinking water for the capital, "holds just 14mn cubic metres of water, which is eight percent of its capacity," an official said.

At that level, it can only continue to supply Tehran with water "for two weeks", he said.
